To correct the missed pad touch, press the
touch button for lane 6. Lane 6 now shows
that 2/8 lengths have been completed. The split time will be missing, but subsequent split times
and finish time can be recorded.
Note
: It is not possible to finish a race using +Touch; races must be finished from the touchpads
or backup buttons.
Extra touch (Using
−
Touch and Split Arm)
The swimmers complete another length. Imagine that the second swimmer in lane 6 is slow
getting out of the pool and steps on the touchpad after the pad delay time is up. The pad is
armed at this point and the timer registers this as a touch. Lane 6 now shows incorrectly that 6/8
lengths have been completed and that it is on the finish lap.
To correct this, click
touch button to remove the last touch from lane 6 and then click
which will arm the pad immediately for the next split.
Using Finish Arm
All swimmers except the one in lane 7 touch at the end of the third leg of this relay and the final
swimmers are in the pool. After the pad delay, the lanes with valid touches display F.ARM
showing they armed for finish touches. Lane 7’s length count shows 4/8, and it is not finish
armed.
To prepare the lane for the upcoming finish touch, click the
button. The length counter
still displays 4/8 but pad status display indicates that the pad is armed for the finish. The finish
time and place pick will be accurate.
